Title

Man dancing with human skull at Chui

Description

Skull racks. Under the eaves, tied against the wall or resting (53) on shelves are innumerable trophies. To the left there are several rows of enemies' heads, altogether 137, - apparently the largest collection in the area. The origin of most is still known and proudly recounted. (From the field notes of Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf, Date: 1970-08-26).
